I would hesitate to kill the deal for much of the time and effort invested and some resources will be lost. On the other side, I agree there is a point where we need to take action beyond sitting on our hands and just waiting around for miracles to happen.
Personally I can wait longer, as I have some grain stockpiled and just piecemealing the missing ingredients from my LHBS, but that's not what this group buy is meant for. I know some of you are more desperate to get the goodies. And staying in limbo for this long is beyond reasonable. If our supplier doesn't want to do this he should simply say so, and we all move on. Then again, communication has been absolutely nihil. <The horse...>
I wish we could push this order through as is and then reconsider our options for the future. At the moment we do not have an alternate source setup, and it will take some time and effort to do so.
Meanwhile, since this buy is stonebrewer's puppy, I'm waiting for his decision on how to proceed next. I will refund all the monies paid to me by Sunday at the latest, unless a miracle has occurred or you let me know you want it sooner.
